Amorim Sacked as United Begin Search for New Boss
Manchester United have sacked Ruben Amorim after a turbulent 14-month spell in charge.
Reports from top football journalist David Ornstein confirm that the Portuguese coach has been dismissed with immediate effect, citing a breakdown in relations at Old Trafford following a string of underwhelming performances.
United’s hierarchy is now turning its attention to the next long-term appointment.
Darren Fletcher, the club’s under-18s coach and former midfielder, has been placed in interim charge with BetVictor making him 6/4 favourite to take the job on a permanent basis.
Fletcher’s appointment would follow a growing trend in top clubs appointing ex-players, but he faces competition from several seasoned coaches and up-and-coming tacticians in the latest next Manchester United manager odds.
Next Manchester United Manager Odds
| Next Manchester United Manager | Odds | Implied Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Darren Fletcher | 6/4 | 40.0% |
| Oliver Glasner | 4/1 | 20.0% |
| Enzo Maresca | 4/1 | 20.0% |
| Michael Carrick | 4/1 | 20.0% |
| Xavi Hernandez | 10/1 | 9.1% |
Market Analysis: Fletcher Leads, but Outsiders Could Rise
Fletcher has the inside track given his close ties to the club’s current structure and a successful interim spell could cement his case.
However, names like Oliver Glasner, currently at Crystal Palace, and Michael Carrick present strong competition.
Enzo Maresca recently left Chelsea and has admirers within United’s football department, remaining a candidate.
Meanwhile, Xavi Hernandez is an intriguing outsider at 10/1.
